Chapter 6: Silently looking at each other

Zhang Rou, what should you blame for the food, grass and arms that have been hoarded in Nanyang for many years?In the large tent of the Mongolian Army in Kaifeng, the furious Mongolian Army commander squad roared at the Nanyang General Manager Zhang Rou.

The most powerful man on the battlefield in Jinghu was Mengge's eldest son Bandu. A group of Meng army generals in the tent were shocked by his majesty and were all silent.

Two years ago, after Tachar retreated from Fancheng, Mengge withdrew his position as commander and sent his fourth brother Kublai Khan, who destroyed Dali, to replace the military power. However, as Kublai Khan gradually won people's hearts and established prestige in the Han area, Mengge became suspicious of Kublai Khan.

This time, he launched a general attack on Song Ting. The eldest son squad he specially sent was appointed as the commander of the Mongolian army on the Northern Front, and demoted Kublai Khan to deputy commander. On the one hand, it would weaken Kublai Khan's influence in the Han area, and on the other hand, it would pave the way for his eldest son and establish prestige through military achievements!

Mengge participated in the second Mongolian eldest son's Western Expedition that year. After his former Khan Guiyou died, he was elected as the new Mongolian Khan by the Kulile National Congress as his eldest son.

He is a vested interest, so he naturally does not recognize the tradition of the youngest son guarding the stove in the Mongolian tribe. He knows the benefit of the eldest son inheriting the family property, that is, the most stable when the power is replaced, and the degree of turmoil is lighter than that of the youngest son. Therefore, his eldest son class can be carefully cultivated, and he has been allowed to follow him all year round and teach by example and as a successor.

The guilty minister knew that he had broken the Khan's overall plan and deserved to die. But the prince wanted to think that he had been the forefront of the Great Mongolian Kingdom for many years, Xu Chen was the vanguard in this battle and washed away the shame... The white-haired Zhang Rou knelt on the ground, bursting with tears.

Seeing that the veteran in front of him was extremely humble, Ban Du's anger slightly reduced, and he gave his kindness and power: I agree!I forgive you for your loyalty to the country for 40 years. This time, you will only reduce your ten thousand households to ten thousand households as a punishment.

The guilty minister thanked His Highness the Prince!Zhang Rou shed tears and thanked her, retreating aside.This matter was over, and many Mongolian generals on the field turned their attention to Bandu and waited for his next order.

Ban Du turned his attention to Kublai Khan and Tachar and asked: Two princes, Nanyang is the logistics base for our army to fight against Xiangfan, and our materials were completely lost. This is the Xiangyang combat plan...

Tachar was the grandson of Genghis Khan's youngest brother, Temugewo Chijin, and was granted the title of host territory. He took the lead in responding: Our army established a country through cavalry warfare, and only sheep and horses needed to bring enough battles, and it was not too dependent on logistics.I remember that when the former King Torre detoured from Shukou to attack the Jin Kingdom, he never cared about a city or a land, and finally met with the army on the northern front at Sanfeng Mountain to find an opportunity to destroy the main force of the Jin people!Therefore, our army can still march towards Xiangyang as planned, then bypass the city and head towards the Yangtze River, and finally meet with the army of the central and southern lines in the direction of Sichuan and Dali. In this process, we use the advantage of field to find an opportunity to fight the main force of the Song people and then go straight to Lin'an!

The host prince, one time and another, after our Great Mongol expeditions three times, the Mongols who were good at cavalry warfare had long been separated from all over the Eurasian continent like stars. The main force of the Kaifeng camp this time was the northern Han army who was good at infantry warfare!The infantry relies heavily on logistics... Kublai Khan quickly stepped forward and persuaded.

Fourth Prince, how long does it take to prepare for replenishing the food and grass in Nanyang and launching the Northern Line offensive again?Ban Du still highly recognizes Kublai Khan's military talents.

It will take at least half a year for His Highness the Prince.Kublai Khan answered respectfully.

Why did it take so long?Isn’t Nanyang very close to Fengdaying?Ban frowned and was disappointed.

Back to Your Highness, unlike the cavalry warfare that uses sheep and horses that follow the army as logistics supplies, the food and grass required for the logistics of the infantry warfare are mainly transported by water and ships. If people and animals are transported by land, the losses will surge significantly, and the difference between the two is about ten times. Therefore, the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains, which is dominated by infantry warfare, only expanded to the Western Regions at the peak of the Han and Tang Dynasties, which is far less than my country's direct access to Europe.

Kublai Khan walked to the map in the big tent, pointed to Nanyang and said to Bandu: Please look at the map, the Nanyang Basin is the dividing line between the Yangtze River Han River Basin and the Yingshui Yellow River Basin.The mountain bordering Xuzhou and Caizhou in the northwest of Nanyang is called Tongbai Mountain, which is the remnant connecting the Qinling Mountains to the north and the Dabie Mountains to the southeast.Nanyang is on the west side of Tongbai Mountain and is located along the Baihe River. It can enter the Han River from the Baihe River and then enter the Yangtze River.Ye County in Xuzhou is on the east side of Tongbai Mountain and on the banks of Lishui River. Finally, Ru and Ying can be injected into the Huanghuai through the Honggou artificial canal.Therefore, this place is a key point in the disconnection of the Yangtze River water system from the Yellow River water system in central China. Our water transportation logistics in North China was cut off after arriving here. To go to Nanyang, we must change to land.

In other words, the material transported from Kaifeng Daying to Nanyang front must be transferred from Ye County to cross Tongbai Mountain, so the loss is very large.Ban couldn't help but sigh, but after a moment, he said firmly, "Start the civilians from both routes of Beijing and west to transport grain and speed up their preparations before the war!"

Your Highness, the people of the two routes of the west of Beijing suffered a melee between Mongolia, Song and Jin. Now one out of ten is not available. Even if all the people and Zhuang are sent, it will take several months!The marching secretary Liu Bingzhong cherished the hardships of the Han people and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him. He paused and added, if he was not careful, there would be even civil rebellion!

Your Highness, it is impossible for us to attack Xiangfan as agreed on time, but our army can transport materials to Caizhou through the Huanghuai River system, use Xinyang as the base, go south to Tongbai Mountain, and go directly to Ezhou through the Shu River.Kublai Khan said.

Well... this plan is good. Ye County is 400 miles away from the Song army front line, while Xinyang is less than 100 miles away from the Song army front line, and the material preparation time is reduced by half!Moreover, as long as our army captures the Great Victory Pass, we can still use food to the enemy!Ban was excited when he looked at the map in front of him, so he ordered, "The army obeyed the orders and immediately marched towards Xinyang!"He looked around and saw that the generals were all obedient. For a moment, he was full of energy and ambitions. He added that in order to ensure that there was no accident, the two routes in western Beijing would impose war taxes after the autumn harvest, and at the same time mobilized the civilians to transport grain to the front line!

Your Highness, the people in the west of Beijing suffered a lot of war and suffered a lot, and everyone was fond of food. What's more, after the Yellow River broke through the dam of the dam, the harvest in the Yellow River area was greatly reduced, and the people were reluctant to survive. If there was an additional tax, there was almost no way out. Please think twice!Grand Secretary Hao Jing was anxious and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground and robbed the land with his head to ask for his orders for the people.

This battle is related to the great cause of our great Mongolian country to unify the world!Those little people didn't care about it now!He smiled at the Mongolian and semen generals around him, not to mention the survival of the fittest!If there is no one farming in the Yellow Flood Zone, wouldn’t it be better for us to raise horses!

Wonderful!Wonderful!Your Highness is wise!Tachar, Ali Hague and others burst into laughter.

The calm Kublai Khan saw the behavior of the people in the tent. He saw that the Mongolian generals were all domineering, and the generals were flattering and flattering. The Han generals all bowed their heads and said nothing, and an unknown premonition surged into his heart...

********************

Since then, the Mongolian army changed its combat direction from Xiangyang to Ezhou, and the Song side has always focused on Xiangyang on the Jinghu battlefield, and lacked defense against the Ezhou direction. Therefore, tens of thousands of Mongolian troops who were raising their strength went south and captured the city and plundered the land. They were as powerful as they crossed the Yangtze River in less than two months and surrounded Ezhou City.

Just as the Mongolian army organized manpower to cut down surrounding trees to create siege equipment, thousands of warships rushed from the west on the Yangtze River, and the flag read "Lu Wende, the governor of the Baokang Army."

The Mongolian army learned in advance that Lv Wende had already gone to the Sichuan battlefield to rescue Hezhou in April this year. This time, the Song army navy came to the Ezhou battlefield to rescue. The Sichuan war must have ended, and the Mongolian army in the middle was probably defeated... As expected, the shocking news of the death of the Mongolian army's messenger traveling thousands of miles to the death of Mengge. In addition, the Song army reinforcements also deliberately spread the news, and the morale of the Mongolian army was floating for a while.

At that time, the highest commander squad in the Mongolian army tent was paced back and forth, and was very upset. All the generals were silent, and the atmosphere in the field was extremely quiet.

Your Highness, our army took advantage of the lack of defense in Ezhou and forced the Yangtze River to cross the Yangtze River in Jiangbei. The material resources in Jiangbei can still cross the river. Now the Song army's naval army and reinforcements have already cut off the logistics supply line in Jiangbei... Kublai Khan said.

How long will it take for the army on the south bank to store grain?Ban Du said with a frown.

Less than a month.Kublai Khan responded.

What should I do? The class stopped, held his forehead with his hands, and fell into deep thought.

Your Highness, Ezhou has a generation of defense. Our army is like taking advantage of the county town on the north bank of the Yangtze River. The autumn harvest is very rich. If our army divides its troops to capture the county town on the south bank of the Yangtze River, it will definitely be able to support the war by fighting and support it for a longer time!The Semu general Ali Hague stepped forward to offer advice.

What if the south bank of the Yangtze River is warned, strengthen defense or transfer food and grass?Kublai Khan frowned.

The Song people who were raped from Ezhou and Jiangbei to work as cannon fodder are thrown away as first cannon fodder. If the food is still in short supply, the Han people from both sides of Beijing and western regions who were with the army were abandoned!Tachar yelled.

As soon as this statement was made, all the Han generals on the field showed a look of disappointment, but they were also frightened by power and did not dare to contradict each other. Liu Bingzhong and Hao Jing are typical negative examples. Since the marching plan was discussed two months ago, both of them have been deliberately suppressed and targeted everywhere. Hao Jing has since been ill.

My father Khan once told me that this is an evil law, and that it is necessary to use it with caution... Ban Du looked around and saw that the Han generals in the field lowered their heads and looked like they had no choice but to do anything, so he continued that the army is in danger of destruction. If everyone had no other way, they would not care about so much at that time!

After the food and grass were temporarily free, Ban looked a little slow. He looked at the map in front of him and thought about the retreat of the Mongolian army. As long as he divided the army into several parts and scattered them all over the east and west of the Yangtze River, it would be not difficult to cross the river.

but!

After his father's death, he did not make great achievements in his journey south and lacked prestige. It would be difficult to become the new Khan if he wanted to return to Hara and Lin to gain the support of a number of nobles at the Huller National Taiwan Conference!

After returning in such a mess, can I still control these arrogant soldiers and generals under my command?

Grassland men have always spoken by their strength!

But if the battle continues, how can the low morale in the army be solved?

He couldn't help knocking on the desk with his hands and thought carefully... A moment later, a complete combat plan was deduced in Bandu's mind. He stood up and said in grief and anger to the generals: My father Khan unfortunately died early, and the main force of the middle army returned north. His plan to bring together the three armies in Jingxiang in advance could no longer be realized.He looked around for a while and saw that the generals were helpless and unwilling to accept it, so he continued, but our trip could not be in vain. He had always heard that the king and minister of Song Dynasty were greedy for life and fearlessness of death. He even contributed money and silk to seek peace, and even destroyed the Great Wall and unjustly killed Yue Wumu, the main pillar.Then let’s do the same thing and send envoys to talk to him about it?

It’s okay to have peace talks, but we can’t suffer any losses!Tachar and others started yelling.

That is, you can send someone who is eloquent and eloquent.Ban looked around and asked, Where is Hao Jing?Why didn't you come today?

When he returned to His Highness, Mr. Hao followed the army south and was exhausted all the way, and suffered from serious illness. He was bedridden a few days ago.Zhang Rou responded.

Zhang Rou, Hao often praises your son Zhang Hongfan as his most proud disciple. I will give your Zhang family another chance to atone for their sins, so let Zhang Hongfan go to the Song army to negotiate peace!Ban ordered in an undisputed tone.

Obey the order!The guilty minister thanked His Highness for the dog's son.Zhang Rou responded respectfully.

********************

After Zhang Hongfan was ordered to go on the Song army to envoy the Song army, the Mongolian army threw down the siege equipment all over the ground, and pulled the camp back and evacuated dozens of miles. The Song army saw the smoke and dust brought by the evacuation of tens of thousands of Mongolian troops on the city tower, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief and let the Mongolian army envoys enter the city of Ezhou.

After the representatives of the two sides met in the meeting in the meeting hall of the city, Zhang Hongfan immediately expressed the conditions for the peace talks between Mongolian and Mongolian military. The Song side paid 2 million taels of silver at one time, which was equivalent to the total amount of 10 years of tribute set during the peace talks between Mongolian and Song after Duanping entered Luoyang. In other words, the Song side spent money to buy the ten-year armistice agreement.

Song Fang's representative Jiang Wanzai immediately stated that the amount was too high and it exceeded the authority that he could seize his position, and he needed to report this matter to the Chief Privy Councilor Jia Sidao.

After the Song representative left temporarily, Zhang Hongfan saw that there was no one around and sighed to A Xiu, who was traveling with him: A Xiu, this trip is a great risk, you don’t have to come.well!How could you be so stubborn!

Brother Zhang, you and my brother are in a fight. If you are in danger, how can I ignore it... A Xiu held Zhang Hongfan's hand tightly.

Zhang Hongfan frowned and said: When Tore sent a mission to Subuhan to the State of Song to attack Jin, he was killed by the General of the Song army's Lueyang; after Duanping entered Luoyang, Ogede sent Wang Ji to the State of Song to request that the annual tribute be deducted for three years and he returned from illness; Yueli Masi, who was sent at the same time, was also detained, and it has been 18 years so far, and his life and death are unknown... This mission to the State of Song is a high-risk job!

Didn’t the Mongolian and Song dynasties form an alliance to jointly destroy the Jin Dynasty?Why did the Song State have different diplomatic orders and are unstable?A Xiu looked puzzled.

Since Zhao Gou rebuilt the Song Dynasty, there have been peace-oriented and war-oriented factions within them. Emperors of all dynasties have been swaying between the two factions, and the two factions have since been in conflict with each other. Their changeable foreign policies are an external manifestation of the inability to reconcile internal contradictions in the court!Zhang Hongfan shook his head and said.

Just when the two were uneasy, Jiang Wanzai hurriedly walked in from outside the conference hall and frowned: Special Envoy Zhang!I negotiated with Shumi Jia. Since Duanping entered Luoyang, Song and Mongolia have experienced several major wars, and the interim truce has never exceeded ten years, so it is impossible to achieve the conditions for tribute 2 million taels of silver at one time!

The meaning of the noble side... Zhang Hongfan felt relieved, but fortunately he didn't kill the envoy directly.

The tribute of 200,000 taels of silver is paid every year. If the Mongolian army seeks trouble at the border, the treaty will be automatically invalidated!Jiang Wanzai responded.

This condition was actually the bottom line of peace talks given by Emperor Zhao Yun and Jia Sidao before sending him to the Jinghu battlefield. He was appointed as the military position during this trip. He was the leader of the war-first faction in Ezhou. He did not want to negotiate, but there were too many peace talks in the city of Ezhou. He was worried that the peace talks would lose the bottom line during the peace talks in order to survive in order to survive, so he had to shoulder the heavy responsibility himself.

I understand that the two sides have too big differences and I can't make the decision on this matter, so I sent an assistant to pass on your opinions back to the army.An ominous premonition vaguely arose in Zhang Hongfan's heart...

********************

On the morning of the second day after the Song army's peace agreement was passed back, generals from more than 100 households of the Mongolian army were ordered to gather at the school ground. The highest commander of the Mongolian army on the northern front read out to the thousands of generals in the field with the letters sent back by the envoy.

After reading the peace agreement between the Song army, the field suddenly became a boil, with 200,000 taels of silver being only one tenth compared to the Mongolian conditions!

This number cannot even match the commercial tax in Ezhou for one year, and Song Fang is too arrogant!

Seeing the generals in the field being angry and ready to look, Ban immediately stirred up the flames: The Song people are arrogant and do not take us seriously. Can we warriors bear such humiliation?!

cannot!

Our 40,000 warriors on the northern front have been in war for many years. Before a tough battle, each of them is willing to return to the north with 5 taels of silver?!Ban asked again.

Each person is 5 taels of silver?Not enough to buy horse feed for this expedition!

A great shame and humiliation!

I can't accept it!

After conquering Ezhou, the silver, treasures and women in the city are not ours!

Siege the city!

Siege the city!

Siege the city!

********************

On the side of a single cavalry holding a white flag, Jiang Wanzai, who was patrolling the city tower, immediately signaled to the Song army's crossbowman to stand by because he found out that this person was the former Grand Victory Guard of the Song army, and it seemed that this person had surrendered to the enemy.

Listen to the Song people in the city, our army wanted to talk to you sincerely, but you were too arrogant. Your Highness had to teach you a lesson. If the city was opened and surrendered now... But the envoy who persuaded surrender had not finished speaking, but his former colleague Jiang Wanzai waved his hand and the arrows on the city were shot together. He was immediately shot into a hedgehog with his man and horse.

Pooh!Dog traitor!There is still plenty to die!The deputy generals of the main battle faction around Jiang Wanzai cursed.

A moment later, an emotional person brought the Mongolian army envoy to the city tower, waiting for the order of the chief officer to kill him to vent his anger.

Zhang Hongfan and others were just escorted to the city tower by the Song army's leading war faction and brought the rebel martial arts masters to the military.

When he saw the envoy who persuaded surrender was killed, the two armies were about to start a war. He knew that he was trapped in an enemy and had almost no way to survive, so he had to kill him.

It just implicated his companions, especially his little brother A Xiu. He looked at the messenger who was shot as a hedgehog in front of the city gate and joked: A Xiu, tell you not to come, but you didn't listen to your elder brother and told you that Song Ting was a high-risk job.

Brother Zhang, I blame my skills for being too weak to protect you and walk away... A Xiu was a little annoyed. If he had the sixth-level ultimate internal power like Yang Guo, the God Condor Heroes who fought two months ago, who could stop them from getting out of here!

Jiang Wanzai puts these two young men with love and righteousness in their eyes. Although the other party is in the enemy camp, he can't help but feel good about it.

He also remembered that Zhang Hongfan was properly and polite during the negotiations the day before yesterday, so he had no intention of harming him. He even tried to be tempted by Zhang Hongfan. It was obvious that the prince of Bandu regarded him as a foot cloth and threw him away after using it once... Jiang Wanzai waved his hand and signaled that there was no need to make things difficult for them, and only let the rebel martial arts masters who came to help the battle strictly monitor him and did not let him escape.

At this moment, a dong came from afar!Dong!Dong!Dong!Dong!The sound of Mongolian war drums sounded, and everyone looked at the voice, and saw a large group of ragged people coming towards Ezhou City in a mess. If those with better eyesight, they would find that each of them staggered towards the moat outside the city with sandbags.

After a group of Mongolian cavalry followed the people, Zhang Hongfan recognized the banner, which was the Semu Army led by Ali Hague.

As long as the people of Ezhou walked a little slower, the Mongolian army's whip and steel knives fell on them, whipping them into pieces and cutting them all over the field. The sound of crying with grief spreading for ten miles, making people cry.

A Xiu could see clearly the despicable behavior of the Mongolian army on the city tower. He always believed that if the two armies fought with real guns and fought for the victory or defeat, there was nothing to say. However, the Mongolian army used such impolite means to siege the city and slaughter the unarmed people. He couldn't help but doubt his experience in office in the past two years... On the Ezhou Tower City, the soldiers guarding the city and the rebels who helped the army were both very sad and angry when they saw their compatriots were killed. They asked Jiang Wanzai, the highest commander in the field, to leave the city to rescue. Jiang Wanzai looked worried and paced back and forth. Of course, he knew that this was a vicious trick of Mongolian siege. Since Genghis Khan, the Mongolian army has taken the evil deeds to drive away the enemy country's people first. As long as the guards are soft-hearted to rescue, the subsequent Mongolian cavalry can use the advantage of field battle to weaken the garrison in the city, and even take the opportunity to break the city.

This method can not only make sufficient preparations for siege, but also shake the enemy's morale. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. It is cruel and vicious, and often has miraculous effects.

The inner morality and the responsibility of defending the city are in constant conflict at this moment. As the second-ranked person in Ezhou City, Jiang Wanzai, the army member, could not bear the responsibility of the loss of his army, so he quickly called his younger brother Jiang Wanqing: Where is the envoy Jia Shumi?Let him decide!

He asked Sun Huchen to protect him and run away towards Huangzhou!Commander Jiang Wanqing showed contempt on his face.

Jiang Wanzai was stunned. Now he was the highest commander of Ezhou City. As the saying goes, "Charity is not in charge of the army, so he has to be hardened: Don't leave the city!"Those who violate the order will be killed!

Brothers on the city, we are all people in Ezhou, don’t shoot arrows!Don't shoot arrows!The people of Ezhou, who were threatened by the Mongolian army, were getting closer and closer to the moat, and their crying and wailing became clearer.

When the people of Ezhou who were fighting sandbags entered the range of the defenders on the city, the soldiers all had tears in their eyes, and they were hesitant and could not decide. Many soldiers quietly put down their bows and arrows and stopped to wipe the tears from the corners of their eyes.

Even the officers and soldiers in the supervising team burst into tears and forgot to check the army's preparations for combat.

Head coach, the people are about to enter the range!Do you want to shoot arrows?Jiang Wanqing, whose eyes were so anxious that he was red, roared at Jiang Wanzai and asked.

Jiang Wanzai clenched his fists and hammered it hard on the stack of arrows, gritted his teeth and said: For the sake of the Song Dynasty, shoot arrows.Before the words were finished, tears fell first.

For the Song Dynasty!Shoot the arrow!Shoot the arrow!Jiang Wanqing roared, his voice hoarse and with a hint of crying sound.

Other Song army generals also cried: For the sake of the Song Dynasty!Shoot the arrow!Shoot the arrow!

But the Song army archers were shaking hands, saying that they could not draw the bow or hit the arrow. The generals were urging them tightly, and some even threw the bow and arrow to cover their faces and cried bitterly.

They are entering range and are about to fill the moat and shoot arrows!Shoot the arrow!Shoot the arrow!Please... The commander Jiang Wanqing urged him and started crying.

Infected by him, the other Song army generals were even more crying, and the people of Ezhou under the city had already carried sandbags to a place less than thirty steps from the moat.

Seeing this, the main general Jiang Wanzai was anxious and jumped up and kicked his younger brother Jiang Wanqing, and snatched a bow and arrow, pulled the bow and shot it out, and shot a commoner by the river.

Anyone who does not shoot arrows will be engaged in military law!Jiang Wanzai yelled with a black face, supervising the team, preparing for swords and axes!

The supervisory team put the sword and axe on their body, and the Song soldiers then shot out the feather arrows and cried, "Friends, don't come here."We shot arrows!Feather arrows fell one after another, and the people of Ezhou by the river also fell into pools of blood.

Seeing this, some people threw down their sandbags and ran back, but the Mongolian cavalry led by Ali Hague cut them over without mercy. When the remaining people saw that they would die, they had to accept their fate and drag their tired steps forward to fill the river.

A few lucky people avoided the arrows shot from the city, completed the mission and retreated beyond the range of the Song army, and did not dare to go back. Instead, under the leadership of a bald monk, they folded their hands together and raised their heads, knelt on the ground and bowed to the sky.

After the people of Ezhou were killed or injured, the Mongolian army signaled the people who completed the task of filling the river to return to the rear formation. Then, under the command of Han Shihou such as Zhang Rou and Dong Wenbing, hundreds of carriages were pushed towards Ezhou City by Mongolian Han infantry. When passing through the sandbags left by the people's bodies, the infantry hiding under the carriage took the opportunity to pick it up and stopped until the moat, and continued to complete the river to fill the cannon fodders' unfinished task.

The ordinary arrows of the Song army were useless in this regard. Only a slightly more powerful crossbow could shoot through the snail. After a few hours, the Mongolian Han army finally filled the North Gate moat at the cost of most of the losses.

But the Mongolian army did not continue to attack the city, but retreated in an orderly manner, obviously to accumulate strength for the next wave of offensives.

On the city tower, Zhang Hongfan saw all this, especially when he saw the banner of his father Zhang Rou in the battle formation, so he felt quite complicated.

He had long heard of these siege techniques from his father and brother, and was often used in the early years when the Mongolians attacked Jin.

However, in recent years, under the persuasion of the Han army such as Shi Tianze and Liu Heima, in order to gain the hearts of the people in the conquering area, Mengge has ordered to use it with caution. Unexpectedly, after the war between the Mongolian army is intensified, he will use the same trick again. Such vicious behavior is finally seen by himself today.

The leader of the rebel army responsible for custodying him saw that Zhang Hongfan frowned and did not express his joy at all for the Mongolian army to complete the established tasks. The man was not too embarrassed by him and said sadly and angrily: Have Special Envoy Zhang seen enough?It's time for us to go downstairs!

Zhang Hongfan, A Xiu and others were speechless and followed.Among the crowd, Ah Xiu was most sad. He saw his eyes red and his hands were tightly pinching, obviously trying his best to suppress his sorrow.

Liang Yishi, if we are lucky enough to win this battle, are you still going to retire to the countryside?When passing by Jiang Wanzai's side, the leader of the rebel army was called.

The young man stood there and after a long time of tears, he said: It was Wen Jing who was very wrong to join the army. I thought that the two countries had fought military forces and the people were implicated by the war and were at most taxed and were mostly corvee-service. Unexpectedly, the Mongols were cruel by nature and were so crazy!If all the Han men in the world were as passive as I was when I first joined the rebel army, then we would not be able to escape the fate of the people of Ezhou outside the city after losing our combat power and be a group of cannon fodders at the slaughter of others... If we all want to find a paradise to avoid war and not fight against foreign invasions, then the Chinese civilization that has been passed down for four thousand years will only be the land of China and the country will be destroyed...

very good!Wen Jing, I am very pleased that you can understand this truth by yourself. I believe that Leader Yunshu is also very happy to see your growth!Jiang Wanzai patted Liang Wenjing on the shoulder, looked around, and then continued to say to the young people around him, I hope that all the Han men can get rid of their depressed spirit and just move upward, without listening to those who give up, have a little heat and shine!

A little bit of heat is shining... Thank you for your teachings from Senior Jiang, Wen Jing must remember it in your heart!Liang Wenjing clasped his fists and saluted, and he continued, "By the way, when it comes to Leader Yun Shu, I haven't heard from him since the Hezhou clearance three months ago. Have you contacted him recently?

Two months ago, when my friend Yun Shu came to Ezhou first, he asked me about someone, maybe he was looking for him... Jiang Wanzai looked at Zhang Hongfan with a surprised expression on his face, and did not avoid him. Then he continued to say to Liang Wenjing, his name is Wen Tianxiang, and like you, he is an outstanding young man. Three years ago, at the age of 21, he was the first in the Jinshi, but he was the top scorer at that time!A few months ago, because he bluntly reprimanded the eunuch Dong Songchen, he offended Prime Minister Ding Daquan and resigned and returned to his hometown. Yun Shu's friend once admitted that he admired his talents very much and must have invited him out of the country to go to the national crisis.

Second brother, you are also praising yourself for being outstanding!The boss is the one, why don’t you be humble in front of the younger generation?Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Jiang Wan continued to say, "Where is our Jiang Jun, who was 22 years old, as a third-rank martial arts rank, participated in the Wenju House selection, and was shortlisted for the first class of the palace examination, and was awarded the Jinshi!"

Jiang Wanzai captured the admiration that everyone had cast, and touched her white beard and laughed proudly: Haha, that happened thirty years ago, Wanqing doesn’t need to mention it anymore!

At this moment, A Xiu in the corner was still savoring Jiang Wanzai's earnest warnings. He murmured to himself: There is a little heat, a little light... When he heard Jiang Wanzai's heartfelt laughter, he suddenly felt that his heart was enlightened, like a sudden enlightenment!

And today the haze in my heart is like a clear cloud to see the sun, and it has disappeared...

********************

For more than ten days, the Mongolian army attacked the city every day, and the commander squad still adopted the strategy of driving the people first, the Han army worked hard, and Semu and Mongolian cavalry supervised the formation behind.

Although the commander of the Song army, Jia Sidao, escaped at the last moment, Jiang Wanzai responded properly after taking over the command power. The defenders and the rebels in the city all shared the same hatred for the enemy, and they also needed the help of the Lu Wende's troops from Sichuan. Therefore, the Song army was always slightly better in the fierce battle, while the Mongolian army suffered more casualties.

Members of the Mongolian delegation were separated from house arrest in guesthouses these days. Liang Wenjing came to patrol from time to time. He was a meticulous person. On the first day of the Mongolian army siege, the Mongolian army discovered A Xiu's hatred of the brutal acts of the Mongolian army. A few days later, he specially started a conversation with A Xiu. When he learned that this young northern Han man with great martial arts was determined to leave the Mongolian army, he intended to win him over. Just wait for the great leader Yun Shu nodded, and formally invited A Xiu to join the anti-Mongolian rebel army.

On this day, when A Xiu saw Liang Wenjing's frowning and restless look, he asked with concern: Leader Liang, is the war unhappy?

Liang Wenjing was also a man who treated others sincerely, and immediately brought up the major events that had happened in the past two days.

It turned out that after receiving a request for help from Ezhou, the Xiangyang defenders in the Jinghu battlefield also sent reinforcements to help. The group also included Guo Jing and his relatives and friends who had devoted themselves to Jingxiang's defense for decades, as well as other Jingxiang knights.

Just yesterday when the reinforcements arrived in Xiangyang, the Mongolian army re-used the same trick, driving the Song people who had been plundered from Jiangbei to attack the city first. How could Guo Jing bear such despicable behavior as the Mongolian army? He immediately led a group of Jingxiang knights out of the city to rescue. Fortunately, Guo Jing's great martial arts skills were great. The Jingxiang knights who accompanied the Jingxiang knights were all martial arts masters. The people who left the city killed the Mongolian cavalry who were following the refugees at the cost of more than half of the casualties, and successfully covered the refugees back to the city safely.

After returning to the city, Guo Jing happened to meet Qi Zhicheng, a member of the Quanzhen Cult who was unwilling to kneel on the Mongols and wandering around the world. Qi Zhicheng told him that a group of Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Cult were lying in ambush among the refugees in Jiangbei and planned to take the opportunity to rescue them. However, half of the Jiangbei refugees in the front camp of the Mongolian army still had time to escape, so everyone decided to go to the camp early this morning to rescue the remaining Song people.

However, the Mongolian army had already made plans to be robbed. After discovering the whereabouts of everyone, they immediately threw the thunder that ignited the fuse into the Jiangbei refugee camp. The refugee camp suddenly became a sea of ​​hell and fire, and Guo Jing was also injured by the bomb. Fortunately, the heroes fought desperately to rescue him, so they brought him back to Ezhou City.

After listening to Liang Wenjing's story, Axiu was impressed by Guo Jingji's noble character of helping others with the weak and helping others. He thought to himself: When my mother taught me martial arts when she was young, she warned me that learning martial arts is to strengthen my body, and to defend myself when fighting with others.Today, I finally understand her painstaking efforts. Practicing martial arts is not used to bully the weak like the Mongolian army, but to resist foreign aggression like the hero Guo Jing!

He admired Guo Jing more and more, and praised him: Guo Daxia is loyal and courageous, and is a role model for our martial artists!

It's Ah!Today, the only two people I admire in the martial arts world are Leader Yun Shu and Hero Guo Jing!Liang Wenjing responded.

Who is this Yun leader?A Xiu was so familiar with this name, but she couldn't remember it for a moment.

Liang Wenjing knew that this was an excellent opportunity to win over the other party, so he said with an extremely admiration: He... He is the founder of our Southern Rebel Army. Two years ago, he dispersed all the wealth of their Changzhou Shenying Sect and used his salary comparable to the imperial guards to recruit all the righteous men in the world to fight against Meng.Later, inspired by his righteousness, his close friend Hua Qingyuan led the core forces of Taizhou Tianji Palace to join, and contributed the Tianji Palace's industry to operate for hundreds of years as financial support, and finally formed the Southern Rebel Army with the Shenying Gate and Tianji Palace as the backbone.After the formal army was established, he led three thousand rebels to the Sichuan battlefield to assist General Wang Jian in fighting the Mongolian army on the central front. Under his leadership, this rebel army was very organized in combat, and mostly focused on raid wars.During the anti-Mongolian process, with the dazzling results one after another, I admired his good leadership, and more and more righteous men were inspired by his righteousness to join the rebel army. Now the number has doubled, with as many as 6,000.

Then... When did the leader of Liang join the Rebel Army?A Xiu actually wanted to know if he met the conditions to join the Rebel Army, but he was shy and embarrassed to ask directly.

Liang Wenjing was overjoyed. He had confirmed that the young man in front of him had the intention to join the rebel army, so he said modestly: It's a long story. Last year, my father and I went south from Guanzhong because of escaping military service in the Mongolian army. On the way, I accidentally caused a disaster and accidentally fell outside Hezhou City.Just when I was almost killed by my enemies, I was fortunately rescued by the rebels. Then I was influenced by the leader Yun and joined the rebels. I have grown a lot this year...

As soon as the war in Hezhou is over, have you come to Ezhou?A Xiu was a little confused about the actions of the rebel army. They were even earlier than the Mongolian army on the Northern Front arrived in Ezhou!

At that time, after the rebel army cooperated with General Wang Jian's Hezhou defenders to kill and wound the enemy chief Mengge, Chief Yun told us that he had obtained reliable information that the Mongolian army on the Northern Front was about to launch an offensive on the Jinghu battlefield. He seemed confident in this battle and promoted me to serve as the staff of the rebel army and asked me to lead three thousand rebels to Ezhou to assist in the war. However, he himself said that there was something more important and left Hezhou one step ahead of time.Liang Wenjing told him frankly.

Leader Yun was in love with the world and was righteous. It was a blessing for the martial arts world to raise troops for the people to fight against the violent enemy!Such a hero among people is really fascinating... A Xiu praised repeatedly.

Little brother, are you talking about me?At that time, a heroic young man with phoenix eyes entered the house with a smile.

Ah!I recognize you... A Xiu exclaimed.

Remember it!

Remember it!

Two years ago, I went to Tongbai Mountain Wall with Brother Zhang to ask for the lost local population in Nanyang. I had the experience of being trapped in the secret room with him. That time, I unexpectedly got the "Baoyuanshen Tongshen" which made me slightly successful in my internal strength. This Yun leader easily cracked the mechanism of the secret room. I still remember that when Brother Zhang was sharing the spoils, he divided the 30% share with him with hatred and said sourly: I will buy it and leave, and I am willing to accept the loss!

Even further, I had just left the valley where I had lived with my mother for thirteen years, and on the Mid-Autumn night after I arrived at the Zhang Mansion in Nanyang, I had a relationship with this leader Yun Shu in front of the sea of ​​fire in the study. I guess this fire was also a proud work he had done to get out of trouble!

Let’s slowly reminisce about the past when we are empty.Yun Shu chuckled, then turned to Liang Wenjing and said, Wenjing, I'm back!

Brother Yun, this team is not easy to lead... After not seeing each other for several months, Liang Wenjing hurriedly went up to hold Yun Shu's hand and poured bitterness.

I trust you!Yun Shu cast a trusted look at Liang Wenjing and said, "I heard that Zhang Hongfan is also in the city?"

His identity is the most special. He is placed in the rebel camp. Do you want to see him?Liang Wenjing responded.

I miss him quite a bit... Yun Shu smiled.

Leader Yun, can I go and see him?I missed him very much... Ah Xiu asked quickly.

Seeing that this young man was affectionate and loyal, Yun Shu felt a good impression and nodded and agreed: Then let's go.

After the three of them left, Liang Wenjing saw that two young men in the courtyard, Chao Yunshu, who had never seen before, followed him, so he cast doubtful eyes on him.

Yun Shu then introduced that the literati dressed up, with a handsome face and beautiful face, Wen Tianxiang resigned from his post because he offended the powerful ministers. This time, he was invited by Yun Shu to join the rebel army to fight against Mongolia.

Another masked man had a special identity and was inconvenient to disclose his identity during this trip.

Liang Wenjing heard Wen Tianxiang's name from Jiang Wanzai a few days ago, and immediately became familiar with him. The group came to the rebel camp while chatting and laughing. Only the masked man was silent and looked at the rebel camp arrangement and mental outlook from time to time with his eyes. Yun Shu also generously asked him to observe and didn't mind.

********************

General Zhang!Long time no see, I miss you very much!Yun Shu smiled slightly when he saw Zhang Hongfan.

Leader Yun... Zhang Hongfan responded with a wry smile, and before he could continue speaking, he was interrupted by a hurrying call.

Leader Yun, the Tartars launched another offensive!The rebel commander rushed over.

How about it compared to the past?Yun Shu asked.

Today's offensive is the most fierce this month, and they drive the people who are sieging the city to double the scale of the past!The commissar replied.

Not right. Didn’t Guo Daxia lead the Jingxiang knights to rescue the remaining Song people in the early morning?Liang Wenjing shook his head and said.

When I returned to the Liang Dynasty, the people today's accents were not Jingxiang people, but northern Han people who served in labor with the army.

impossible!Absolutely impossible!Zhang Hongfan exclaimed!

He served in the army for several years and experienced several battles between the Mongolian and the Song Dynasty. He had never seen anyone who drove his people to the front line to be cannon fodder. This vicious method was simply incredible!

Yun Shu looked at Zhang Hongfan calmly and shook his head and said: General Zhang, you overestimate the bottom line of the Mongolians. When I left Hezhou in August, the main force of the Mongolian army retreated north on the middle line. In order to block the news, they killed all the people in Sichuan who had already surrendered along the way.He saw that Zhang Hongfan still looked in disbelief and continued, if you don’t believe it, you will know it with me to go to the city tower.

The group came to the north of Ezhou City, where the military situation was most urgent. After climbing the city wall, they saw many people corpses under the city. It was a terrible sight. The Mongolian cavalry not far away drove a new wave of people to attack the city. These people cried in the northern accent: Brothers of Song, we are all Han people, don’t shoot arrows!Don't shoot arrows!

Zhang Hongfan saw this tragic situation and his face turned pale and could not say a word.At this moment, A Xiu found a pair of figures that shocked him in the crowd outside the city.

Yun Shu didn't care about them and continued to climb up the city tower and came to Jiang Wanzai who was giving orders and said, "Hello, Senior Jiang!"

Jiang Wanzai replied with praise: Long time no see you, little friend Yunshu!Can this trip be as good as your wish?

This trip is quite good!What's going on today's war?Yun Shu asked respectfully.

The Tartars came prepared today. Half an hour ago, they threatened him to surrender with the captured two daughters of Guo Daxia. Guo Daxia was reluctant to submit, but he felt most sorry for his two daughters. After discussing with a group of Jingxiang knights, they led everyone out of the city to rescue them.Unexpectedly, shortly after they went out, the Tartars began to drive the people to siege the city. This was the second wave of offensive.I guess this is the Tartars' plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle today!Jiang Wanzai said solemnly.

Yun Shu recalled the scene of fighting against the enemy side by side with Guo Xiang two years ago, and couldn't help but murmured, Miss Guo, miss her so much... I hope she can survive this disaster and return safely... However, as the people driven outside the city get closer, he had to put away his mind and think about the battle situation in front of him.

After a moment, he decided to plan and asked Jiang Wanzai with an unbearable look: Jiang joins the army, these northern Han people are also our fellow-in-law. I will try to save them and let me command temporarily?

After hearing this, the crowd immediately threw an expression of admiration and admiration to Yun Shu, and the Song army's crossbowmen put down their weapons with relief and looked at their supreme commander Jiang Wanzai, waiting for instructions.

If it weren't for defending this city, who would have been willing to make up his heart to attack his compatriots? Many soldiers felt guilty these days, and even had nightmares at night!

Leader Yun, I believe in you!Jiang Wanzai patted Yun Shu on the shoulder and looked at the mature face. He thought of two young heroes in the heyday of the Han people, Huo Qubing, who was the wolf-guxu, and the young army who volunteered to be the last army. The sky saw that there was a successor to the Han family!

Thank you Jiang for joining the army!Yun Shu thanked him immediately, and he immediately ordered, asking the crossbowmen to not have to shoot the people, and aim the arrows at the Tartars's supervisor; Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui, you two led the rebel naval forces to attack from the west water gate of the city, and went to the riverside to line up to meet the people; Wen Jing, you led the rebel infantry to shout at the top of the city, guide the people to go west along the city wall, and board the boat to escape on the Yangtze River.

Before Yun Shu could finish his order, everyone found that hundreds of people under the city were fighting with the Mongolian cavalry who were supervising the battle. They were killing and evacuating westward. Those who were quick to move had already rushed to the bank of the Yangtze River and jumped into the water to swim to the other side of the Yangtze River.

It was winter now, and the Yangtze River was very cold, but driven by the desire to survive, the biting cold winter swimming was nothing.

On the wall below the city tower, a young man in white jumped and rushed towards the group of rebellious people after he landed on the ground. Who is this person not A Xiu?

********************

But Ah Xiu just saw the northern men under the city wall all dressed in rags, without any armor, and only had simple wooden shields and inferior weapons in his hands.

I believe that in the eyes of the Mongolian commanders, their most important role was to use their lives to push the ladder, well railing, and zombies to the city wall. As for the ants siege, it was just a side effect of consuming the defender's arrows and physical strength.

He was sad for a moment because he himself was a northern Han Chinese!

However, unexpectedly, A Xiu actually saw the figure of his godmother Wang Jin and his friend Li Yan in the crowd. He could not bear it and could not go upstairs to ask Yun Shu and Liang Wenjing for instructions, so he immediately jumped off the city wall.

The defenders on the city wall were specially taken care of by Liang Wenjing, and they did not dare to shoot him easily, so they had to send someone to the city tower to ask the chief for instructions.

Before he could reply, he saw him picking up the remaining soldiers on the ground and throwing and shooting a nearby Mongolian chief with his internal force. The defenders then realized that he was going down to fight the Mongolian army desperately. The soldiers couldn't help but cheer and acted vigorously.

With one blow, A Xiufei grabbed the Mongolian war horse, and he was not interested in fighting. He threw away the Mongolian infantry behind him, and then rode his horse towards Wang Jin and Li Si.

To his surprise, these Han people had already fought with the chase of Mongolian cavalry, and hundreds of people formed a roar of the moon formation and fought against the moat while retreating to the river. During the fierce battle, they also sang Manichae chants:

The only light is the blazing fire.Promote good and eliminate evil, and the eternal principles of heaven.Hold my spear and tie my forehead.Listen to my orders and kill his enemy!

I guess they were unwilling to be the forewarned cannon fodder and rose up to resist under the leadership of the Manichaeists!

A Xiu was shocked at this time. With everyone's cover, it would be much easier to rescue his godmother and Xiaoyan.

He took out the bow and arrow from his luggage and fired several arrows in succession. While he was moving, he shot several Mongolian cavalry surrounding the civilian formation. He rode his horse without saying a word, and he lowered his body, pretending to be a bossless horse running wildly on the battlefield.

The Mongolian army did not expect that an enemy would come from behind. Before they could see the situation clearly, a long spear with a cold light had arrived. Under his turbulent sneak attack, more than ten Mongolian cavalry were immediately taken down.

At that time, the Han people who were already in trouble suddenly realized that dozens of Mongolian cavalry in front of the formation were falling off like sickles and mowed grass. They then found a young Han man coming to help with the battle. He rode a tall war horse, holding a long spear, and was covered in white clothes as snow as snow. The robe was stained with blood stains from the enemy. Everyone suddenly felt that he was like a god, and his morale was boosted in an instant, and they shouted: Bless by the true god!God is with me!I swear not to be a slave!

The remaining Mongolian cavalry found that they were affected by the enemy from both sides and left, and had to turn their heads to escape from the battle with the Han people. However, they did not expect that Ah Xiu had already slammed the horse and rushed towards them. Before they could even shoot arrows, the young man in Mongolian uniforms had already rushed to them. In amazement, they had to raise their weapons and resist.

Just at the moment when the two sides confronted each other, A Xiu held the spear tightly in his right hand, clamped the tail of the spear under his armpit, and stabbed the long spear with the internal force of the Fenshan Fighting out with all his strength with the impact of the war horse. With a bang, he crashed into a long Meng Junshi in front of him and flew up. The man broke his ribs by this force, and he saw that he was not alive.

A Xiu did not stop after a blow, and directly rode his horse to the sun, and rode his horse around the Mongolian knights. Before they could come back to their senses of their superiors' tragic death, they launched a new round of charge!

The spear used by A Xiu was strong and thicker than ordinary spears. It was a heavy weapon for horse wars in the world. It can stab, chop, snatch, and smash, and it cannot be used by strong men with skilled martial arts in the cavalry.

This spear was used by the killing hundred-minister of the Mongolian army, and few of the knights present could use it.

A Xiu has been practicing martial arts with Zhang Hongfan in the past two years, and his skills in fighting with spears have become very proficient. This battle is a very easy-to-use and easy-to-use battle!

When the remaining knights of the Mongolian army finally assembled and formed a wedge-shaped formation and confronted him, everyone realized that the long soldiers in their hands were shorter than the long spear in his hands. The horse war said: one inch long and one inch stronger. This rush A Xiu had already rushed into the Mongolian army knight formation and knocked a knight in front of him down. He swung the handle of the spear and smashed it horizontally, hitting the back of the head of a Mongolian army knight, and his brain was covered with the teeth of the spear.

A Xiu pressed the tail of the spear with his left hand, and flipped back with the long spear back, slashing the face of a Meng army knight next to him. The entire face of the cavalry was immediately distorted and half of the face turned into a mass of flesh and blood!

For a moment, A Xiu stabbed, chopped, picked, pulled, and slapped the spear, killing more than ten people in a row like flowing clouds and water. All the Mongolian knights present were frightened. The war horses under his seat neighed, and the other horses in the field seemed to be triggered, and they screamed in unison. However, when the war horses neighed, the spear wind blew up, A Xiu slashed the sky spirit cover. Once this long was killed, the troops completely lost their leader, and the remaining knights slapped their horses to escape!

Seeing this, all the Han people were excited and cheered up to the sky: The heroic power!Thousands of victory!Thousands of victory!Thousands of victory!

A Xiu fought fiercely, but he didn't go to chase him because he was worried about his godmother and Xiaoyan. He immediately turned over and got off the horse and went to the formation to find someone.

Seeing this, the Han people who formed the formation gave way, but then saw Li Yan running towards him and cried: Brother Xiu, you are here, mom... she can't do it anymore...

Before he could tell Li Yan about the joy of reunion, A Xiu encountered a bolt from the blue when his godmother died. He suddenly felt dark and almost fainted. He quickly grabbed Li Yan and asked anxiously: Xiaoyan, what's wrong with her godmother?

Li Yan held his hand and ran to the back of the formation and said: In September this year, the people of Caizhou were summoned to go south to be military and civilians, and most of us believe in Manichaeism. The preacher in the religion who was in charge of preaching died of illness on the way south, and his mother was elected as a new preacher.Today, the Tartars supervising team came to the camp and asked us to pioneer the attack. My mother told us that this group was life-and-death. She was unwilling to let down the church members' trust in her, so she connected with the church members and turned against the Tartars when approaching the city wall. She led everyone to escape to the riverside, and was sniped by the Tartars...

When the two of them came to Wang Jin, they saw the woman wearing a thorn hairpin and a cloth skirt with her eyes lost, and her eyes gradually dimming, and she was already dying... Li Yan hurriedly held her hand and cried: Mom, Brother Xiu is here...

A Xiu immediately held Wang Jin's hand and said in tears: Godmother, the child is late...

A hint of clarity flashed in Wang Jin's eyes and he smiled and said: Good boy... are you all safe?

Li Yanying said: With Brother Xiu’s help just now, we have repelled the offensive of the Tartar cavalry. It is safe for the time being. We are almost at the riverside.

Wang Jin reluctantly responded: Good child...good child..., her words became weaker and weaker, and her eyes lost their luster. When she was in danger, she murmured to herself, "Guard Li, why don't you leave?"I'm injured, I can't implicate you...

Mother, what are you talking about?Li Yan was a little confused.

Wang Jin seemed to have not heard it, and continued to say to himself: Li Lang, your small seal script is a bit hasty... Hey, do you think the word "double" looks like we look at each other?Dad, when will you come back? I named him Li Yan, hoping that he will be a scholar in the future and stay away from war...

When Li Yan heard this, he finally realized that his mother was missing her father Ah in the moment of her rebirth.

Husband, I... I'm almost out of here, don't worry, Xiao Mo'er is taken care of by his righteous brother, his name is A Xiu, and both of them are honest and brave good children...

After speaking, a pair of tears flowed down his cheeks, and Wang Jin passed away suddenly with reluctance to the world.

********************

On the wall of the north gate of Ezhou, Zhang Hongfan saw all this in his eyes, his heart was as if he was twisted.

The regime that Zhang family served for many years finally showed its cruel nature today. My father followed several Khans to fight across the country and the war, and must have experienced such inhumane atrocities. Otherwise, how could the population in the north drop sharply and the Jurchens be destroyed... However, in this chaotic era where life is like grass, how could the Han people in the north survive besides surrendering to the strong?

General Zhang, is this young man from Axiu your subordinate?Wen Tianxiang asked, pointing at the brave and brave young man in white in the distance.

Mr. Hui, he is my follower of literary affairs.Zhang Hongfan responded respectfully.

Wenshi entourage?Then why is his horse fighting skills so superb?

It is taught next to him.

I believe the general is more proficient in riding skills!

I dare not take it. A Xiu is a martial arts genius. The so-called "greatness is better than the blue" is better than the blue. This is the case!

Wen Tianxiang smiled slightly: The general is so humble. Seeing that Ah Xiu is so brave, if the rebels get it, it will be like a tiger with wings!

Zhang Hongfan sighed: It was our army that was tyrannical and lost its power, and no wonder he turned his back... At this time, he saw a group of knights under the banner of the Sci-eye army rushed towards A Xiu, and he didn't care about the opposition between the two sides. Oh no, A Xiu and the others were chased.

Wen Tianxiang comforted: Don’t worry, the leader Yun led the rebel army out from the east gate to pick them up.

Ah?Leader Yun was really... so chivalrous... Zhang Hongfan was dug on the spot.

********************

Before A Xiu recovered from the grief of losing his adopted mother, the Mongolian cavalry had already chased him and shot several waves of arrows while advancing. The Han people behind the palace held the wooden shield and did not suffer much casualties, but Pity A Xiu snatched the war horse and was hit by several arrows, and he saw that his life was lost.

When A Xiu heard the neighing of the war horses, he immediately realized that at the moment, Li Yan, who had an average martial arts skills, had to go first with the large army and he came to the rear of the palace.

He borrowed a shield, picked up the long spear beside the horse corpse and came to the front of the formation, forming a circle of arc-shaped shield walls with his fellow civilians. The Mongolian army first rode and shot, but when the results were minimal, they changed the formation and formed a wedge-shaped formation. It seemed that they were going to forcibly rush to the formation.

After the Mongolian army was assembled, only a hundred commanders of the Semu army shouted in Huiyu: The Prophet taught us that the truth should be spread throughout every corner of the world. The mission of our holy warriors is to open up new paths and establish the rule of the true God in the land of the unbelievers!After this battle, we will all become sages, become heroes during our lifetime, and be buried with an Imam after our death, and be worshipped by future generations!

For a moment, these Semite knights shouted wildly under the mobilization of the leader: Allah is the greatest!This is the biggest jihad!However, among the many religions in West Asia, the two families of Tianfang and Manichaeism are like water and fire. Otherwise, Manichaeism would not have left after Persia's destruction and came to the distant Han area to preach.

This time, the Mongolian army command center specially sent Tianfang scholars who had a century-old feud with the Manichaeism to clean up, which can be said to be sinister!

Just as Ah Xiu and others hid behind the shield soldiers and were nervously waiting for the Mongolian army to launch an attack, they found that the attack had been delayed. Until the sound of arrows and crossbows came from their ears, everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and then they found dozens of warships lined up on the Yangtze River. It turned out that the rebel navy from Ezhou came to pick them up!

Everyone was ecstatic. Looking through the shield, the Meng cavalry fell down in front of them, and only a few cavalry rushed to the front, and there was no thunderous momentum of the formation as the attack. A Xiu and others immediately fought with him.

But Ah Xiu lost his mount. Although he had internal strength in the infantry battle, his combat efficiency was greatly reduced. After a melee, just as he was exhausting most of his physical strength, he suddenly heard a strong wind coming. This energy was strong and powerful, and it was very powerful, but it was too late to dodge!

At the same time, he felt a strong fighting spirit rise in his body, and he remembered it!

A few months ago, his body reacted involuntarily when he fought with Yang Guo. Later, he carefully read "Baoyuansan Tonggong" and learned that this was a stress reaction after the encounter between two pure yang bodies. The mechanism of homosexual repulsion was implemented in all things in the world, so his physical reaction was more normal.

Could it be that Yang has come?

He looked up and saw a one-armed man riding a horse, and it was indeed him!

This strong wind was a stone he threw with all his strength, and was hitting him head-on!

It's too late... Damn!

Lost to him again... What would her mother react if she knew that her lover had killed her child?

In the flash of lightning, what emerged in A Xiu's heart was this ridiculous idea... Just when A Xiu was about to close his eyes and wait for death, he found another strong wind coming towards him. He heard a ding-down sound, Yang Guo's stone was shot down by a sleeve arrow!

In a blink of an eye, a man and a pair of horses roared over and blocked him.

Biwei arrow!Are you Changzhou Yunshu?Yang Guo pulled his horse in front of the formation and put away his murderous intent.

He was also the leader of the rebel army, and he had heard of Yun Shu for a long time. He had led thousands of troops to the front line of the Mongolian army just after his twentieth year. His achievements and prestige were the highest among the rebel army!

Hero Yang, I have been revered for a long time!Just now, this hero has already been misunderstood. In order to protect these Han people, we have come here to help them get out of trouble.Yun Shu pointed to the rebels behind him and said respectfully to Yang Guo.

Seeing Yang Guo frowning and thinking, Yun Shu turned around and took a white sweat-blooded BMW to Axiu, and smiled and said: Little brother, your horse.

A Xiu was saved by him and escaped from death. Her heart was moved and her eyes turned red: Thank you, Leader Yun!He was a shy man, unable to speak too much, so he had to repay the kindness of the rebel army with practical actions.

When he was about to use his horse to fight again, he saw two cavalry running from a distance towards Yang Guo. He recognized the person in front of him. He had met Miss Guo Er who had seen during the trip to the wall of Tongbai Mountain. She was detained by the Mongolian army this morning. She was safe and sound this time. She must have been able to escape with the help of noble people.

The rider behind him was dressed in white clothes and was extremely gorgeous. Who was not the mother he was thinking about day and night?

It turned out that Yang Guo was thinking about the sixteen-year appointment with Xiaolongnu. On the seventh day of the 12th month, he came to Jueqing Valley to meet Xiaolongnu. After a lot of twists and turns, the two finally got together for a long time. There is no need to say much about the joy.

Although Yang Guo wanted to leave everything behind with his lover and retreat to the world, he was still worried about Uncle Guo Jing's kindness and waited for the end of the Song Dynasty to make a decision. After the two decided to return to the battlefield in Jingxiang to help. After learning that Guo Jing and his group had already gone to Ezhou, they rushed towards Ezhou without stopping.

Yang and Long arrived in Ezhou today and saw their little sister Guo Xiang being captured by King Jinlun. After a fierce battle, they rescued Guo Xiang, but everyone found that the Mongolian army had launched a general attack.

The Mongolian army's offensive was particularly fierce and it was full of all its strength. Yang Guo wanted to use the beheading tactics commonly used by the rebel army to dismantle the Mongolian army's offensive. He immediately led Xiaolongnu and Guo Xiang to the central military office of the Mongolian army. When he passed by, he accidentally discovered that the Mongolian army was fighting with a group of Han people. One of the young men in regular clothes looked very familiar. Three months ago, he had fought with him on the Nanyang front!

As the saying goes, the enemy has a narrow road. Yang Guo immediately threw a flying stone and attacked him, but he did not expect to be blocked by Yun Shu.

But Ah Xiu finally saw his mother whom he missed, and was unable to control himself for a moment, and almost fell off his horse. At this moment, he was full of longing and was about to tell him, but suddenly he found that his mother glanced at him with a slight look in his disobedient expression. She turned her eyes to Yang Guo indifferently, with Yang Guo's eyes full of Yang Guo's figure.

A Xiu saw the intimate expression of the couple, but he couldn't even listen to anything Yang Guo said to her.

In the past two years, A Xiu has imagined countless scenes of reunion with her mother, but she did not expect that meeting again would be like this... Yes, this matter is simple, she must not dare to recognize her in front of her lover, because A Xiu is the evil seed born to her and others!

A Xiu suddenly felt very embarrassed. He was dressed in rags and his white clothes were stained with blood. How could he have the handsomeness and aura of being an envoy?

His face was stained with blood, sweat, mud and dirt, and there were several scars on his body. All of this reminded him that he was like a dirty clown in front of this perfect couple, and he was so low that he was so low in the dust... Thinking of this, he was extremely sad, his eyes turned red again, and he didn't dare to see his mother again. Perhaps from now on, she would no longer be his mother... Ah Xiu turned around and saw that Li Yan and others had boarded the rebel warship. He had no worries in his heart, nor did he say hello to Yun Shu and others. He directly urged his mount that had been with him for two years to trot and rush towards the Mongolian army battle formation. Liang Wenjing's familiar concern came from his ears, but he couldn't hear a word.

It's almost time to the Mongolian army formation. Brother Zhang, I can't use the technique of walking on the sun and resting and circling that you taught me.A Xiu tore off her sleeves, covered her mount's eyes, then slapped the horse and accelerated, clamped the spear tightly with her right hand, clamped the tail of the spear under her armpits, and the people and horses rushed into the Mongolian army with all their strength!

I don't want to live like a joke... The moment Ah Xiu pierced the enemy's armor with a long spear, he thought so.
